While still in England Bob was a splendid addition to any cricket tea,. As a bowler he won the hat trick on several occasions while playing with Lord Brassey’s cricket eleven. The hat trick is won by taking three wickets running with first ball. Bob’s cricketing made Lord Brassey his life-long friend, Letters being exchanged between them over the past fifty years. Bob was a keen hunter and a splendid shot.He also was a good musician. The possessor of a good tenor voice he often sang in church choirs, both in England and Canada.
Bob was always a welcome addition where any group of old timers gathered. Always friendly he spent 50 years of his life in this district, winning the esteem and liking of all who knew him. His passing leaves another gap in the narrowing number of pioneers still with us.
